World Mental Health Day

This Friday 10th October, is World Mental Health Day. Here at Kingskerswell C of E Primary School we recognise the importance of looking after our Mental Health in the same way that we look after our physical health. As the lead on Mental Health and Wellbeing, I regularly use the resources and services provided by the charity 'Young Minds' to support our children and their families. This year, I thought it would be nice to give something back to the charity and join in with their 'Hello Yellow' event. So, on World Mental Health Day, Friday 10th October, I would like to invite everyone to join in and support us in reaching our fundraising goal of £250 by wearing yellow to school. Please do not go out and buy something especially for the day. If your child doesn't have anything yellow please don't worry, you are still very welcome to donate, and there will be a 'Hello Yellow' activity your child can join in with at school. On this day, we will also be starting a conversation about what mental health is and the things we can do to look after it. Any resources we use on the day will be available for you to view on the app, email and on the school website.
